Easter 2013

The Israel family had a wonderful Easter this year!! 

On Monday, Caroline painted some Easter eggs that we hung all over our kitchen.  She is such a fantastic little artist these days.

On Wednesday, Caroline had her class Easter egg hunt and party.  Both girls had such cute spring outfits with bunnies on them.  Sadly, it was so incredibly cold and they couldn't wear them :( 

Waiting to go into big sister's class

So excited about the eggs that she couldn't wait to dig in!

It was such a fun party!  I love getting to watch Caroline play with all her school friends.

The rest of the cold week was spent indoors.  We made Easter cookies, painted, did play doh, watched movies, and just about everything you can think of.  This was one worn out mama!

On Saturday evening we had Adam's family over for Easter dinner.  We had the most delicious food, great wine, and great company.  I didn't take any pictures because we were having such a great time.  When we woke up on Sunday morning, we saw that the Easter bunny came to visit!  He left such wonderful things for both girls.  They both got a new bathing suit, matching dresses, bubbles, sidewalk chalk, bunny ears, a Dr. Seuss book and candy.  Caroline also got a new responsibility chart, magnetic dolls, a frisbee, Dora panties, a slinky, and window stickies.  Ann Parker got some new baby food and a new ball toy.  They racked up :)

After playing with their Easter things, we got ready and went to church.  We enjoyed a lovely Easter brunch at The Club.  It was finally a beautiful day, so we got to go outside and see the city.  The Easter bunny was there and Caroline had her picture with him.  She loved it!  Ann Parker wasn't so sure, so we didn't make her sit with him.  After we came home and changed, we dyed eggs and made cupcakes that looked like little chicks and then went out to Chelsea to visit Andy's family.  By the time we made it home, everyone was exhausted!  We had a great weekend!!
